Where: Glassell Park Community Center, 3750 Verdugo Road, Glassell Park, 90065
On Saturday, August 29, 2009, the Glassell Park Improvement Association Land Use Committee is hosting an educational forum regarding the 710 Tunnel Feasibility Study.
Many members of our community may know of the 710 freeway was the one that goes to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Or perhaps they know it as the one that ends just north of the 10 in Alhambra on the border with El Sereno. Maybe they even think of it as the stub of a freeway that drops south from the 210 /134 interchange in Pasadena.
Those that have been reading the GPIA newsletter lately will know that the 710 Tunnel Feasibility Study currently being conducted by Cal Trans could result in a tunnel portal opening in our community. The feasibility study has been engaged in order to determine whether or not a tunnel could be constructed to complete the 710 gap closure for northbound traffic via a "route-neutral" plan.
What this study means and the potential impacts for Glassell Park and our surrounding communities will be discussed at the educational forum on Saturday, August 29. The event will be held at 10:30 at the Glassell Park Community Center, 3750 Verdugo Road, Glassell Park, 90065 and is free to the public.
